Emuna Beams

Without what we learn in today's lesson, we can't possibly understand why we make the choices in life that we do. Don't miss this:

Emuna Beams is delighted to host one of the world's foremost experts on the mitzvoth of the Land of Israel, Rabbi Moshe Bunim Mintz shlit'a, head of the Halichot Ha'aretz rabbinical seminary in Israel. In the course of the lesson, which we hope will be the first of a series, we also learn the importance of living in the Land of Israel. The lesson is in Hebrew, with English translation by Rabbi Lazer Brody. 38 minutes.

While learning the Tenth Principle of Emuna, we not only learn the amazing ramifications of Hashem's omniscience and Divine Providence, but we also see how modern technology gives us a greater insight into Divine wisdom.

The Torah commands us to serve Hashem with joy, but what happens if we're getting tormented from all different directions and we just don't feel happy? Do we fake it? Is that what Hashem wants?

Today, an olive best categorizes the American Jew. We'll learn how and why in today's emuna-oriented analysis of current events in the USA.

“Chassidic Pearls” is a delightful collection of Rabbi Lazer Brody's original parables that elaborate on the weekly Torah portions. The book brings the flavor of the 19th Century Eastern European hamlet to the family Sabbath table. With the help of this book, anyone can say over beautiful elaborations of the weekly Torah portion and make the make the Torah come alive for the whole family. You'll meet the village matchmaker, the water-carrier, the blacksmith and more, all who teach unforgettable lessons in life that engrave themselves on the hearts of readers, young and old. You'll love this book, available in deluxe softcover or ebook.

In the Ninth of our Thirteen Principles of Emuna, we learn how the Torah is irreplaceable and unchangeable, for it comprises the Divine wisdom that Hashem used in creating the world, as we see in several amazing examples, such as the secret of immunization, which Louis Pasteur found in the Talmud.

Is the Torah relevant today? Isn't it ancient and antiquated? Why must I follow "man-made" religious law? Tough questions? Today's lesson on the 8th of our 13 Principles of Emuna answers all these questions, and more...

This week on Emuna Hour, we learn the 7th Principle of Emuna, all about the prophecy of Moses and why it's so important.

Eliahu Hanavi says, "When the People of Israel settle in the Land of Israel, Hashem's Name is sanctified around the world." The Land of Israel is not a place to come to for physical amenities and comfort, despite the fact that we lack nothing here. But if a person seeks emuna and closeness to Hashem, there is no better place on earth than the Land of Israel.

Is it truth you're looking for? You won't find it in either side of the media or the political spectrum, whether right or left, Democrats or Republicans, Labor or Tory, Bibi or Ganz. Why not? So where do we go for truth?

Elija the Prophet went up to Heaven with horses of fire. Fire in Hebrew is "Aish", Aleph-Shin. This are also the first letters of "Emuna" and "Shalom" - emuna and peace carry us high also.
